The Devil Within

A gun to my head, isn't that convenient. 
pull the trigger and release all my demons. 
I'm ready now with no regret, 
try to surprise me like Russian roulette. 
I'm sick of this life and all the problems that follow, 
this is the best way to end, the shame is too hard to swallow. 
I'm growing weak its coming to an end, 
finally relief, no need to pretend. 
This is it, the light is fading, 
come to my rescue I'm yours for the taking. 
I'm destined to fall what this is, its a sin, 
he finally got what he wanted, the devil within.
